Muscovado is a soft, moist, fine brown sugar. It's also known as Barbados sugar, where it was once made. But ours comes from the island of Mauritius off the African coast. While most brown sugar these days is made by combining already-refined sugar with added molasses-like syrup, this is the real thing: a less refined product with rich, complex flavor.

Using Muscovado Sugar This sugar adds a deeper dimension to cakes, fudge, pecan pie and other desserts with its rich butterscotch flavors. Use it as you would brown sugar - take your morning oatmeal to new heights with a spoonful of Dark Muscovado on top!
